Safe C++ Partnership

I am happy to announce that the C++ Alliance has formed a partnership with Sean Baxter, a renowned engineer, to develop the Safe C++ Extensions proposal.

This is a revolutionary proposal that adds memory safety features to the C++ programming language.

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the C++ ecosystem, as the need for safe code has never been more pressing. With the increasing importance of software security and reliability, developers are facing mounting pressure to adopt safer coding practices. The Safe C++ Extensions aim to address this critical need by introducing novel features that prevent common memory-related errors.

We are thrilled to be working with Sean Baxter on this crucial initiative. The Safe C++ Extensions represent a major step forward in making C++ more secure and efficient, while preserving the language’s performance and flexibility.

The Safe Standard Library is a key component of the Safe C++ Extensions proposal. This extensive library addition will provide developers with robust, memory-safe implementations of essential data structures and algorithms. By integrating these components into the C++ Standard Library, we can ensure that new code is written with safety in mind from the outset.

The C++ Alliance and Sean Baxter are seeking feedback from developers, researchers, and other stakeholders on the Safe C++ Extensions proposal. This collaborative process will help refine the project’s scope and ensure that it addresses the most pressing needs of the C++ ecosystem.
